you can add it any where you want, when you run your project, configure the classpath and add the location of the log4j.properties files by clicking on:

You should also consider to use maven for your java project, it may seem overkill initially but it will pay off in the long run.

maybe the file log4j.properties is being read correctly and the problem is with the configuration in log4j.properties file. Does adding this line to the begining of log4j.properties make any difference (assuming that you are have some logging statements in your class files)

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, dest1
